Some know it as “the Platter” while others call it “Chicken and Rice” or the “Gyro Spot,” but one thing is certain: the world’s most popular food cart is finally expanding to the best coast and Californian foodies can’t be more excited.
Recipients of the 2014 Multicultural Award, New York City’s The Halal Guys have turned business into a franchise with the first location set to open early October in Costa Mesa. No longer will people have to dream about flying to 53rd Avenue & 6th Street for the best meal when it can be (hopefully at max) an hour drive away. If Costa Mesa is still too far, have no fear as franchise owners are planning on opening in 48 more locations across Southern California, from Santa Barbara to San Diego.
